D12 Circles the Globe

Bacon Software customers from around the world are upgrading to D12.  And why not? With great new features and mobile technology the benefits are huge both in ease of use and informational power.  D12 contains lots of great tools to help manage your shop.  One such tool is the D12 Dashboard which provides users with a real time view of critical areas in the shop.  The idea behind this is that you will have a large flat screen television monitor displayed in a prominent place in your plant, or multiple locations. The system will display plant over- view information that updates real time. It shows graphs of plant output, critical job locations, gate performance etc., etc. Think of large monitors displayed in airports or hotel lobbies. It can be used for several great reasons. • When you bring prospective customers in to your plant they can see this plant dashboard and get a quick overview of your operation. This can greatly assist you in getting new customers. (You could set a special configuration for the day they come to visit so only appropriate information would display). • Workers in the plant will see real time information on what they are doing. • Plant supervisors can quickly know what is going on.
